It's Englena gracilis.
Protista
Euglena are commonly found in nutrient-rich freshwater, with a few marine species.
I don't believe they actually grow but they do split in half to grow their species
euglena-common species of protist cell routinely found in water.
The disadvantages of euglena are mostly related to its structure and the fact that there is a debate that never ends on whether it is a plant or animal. The lack of routine genetic analysis is the main disadvantage.
Euglena is a genus of unicellular flagellate protists. It is known mostly and is a widely studied member of the phylum Euglenozoa. Euglenozoa comprises 44 genera and perhaps as many as 800 separate species.
Euglena is actually the genus name as well as the common name for this organism. Finding the exact species is difficult, because the genus Euglena has dozens of species in it.See the Related Links for more information about the genus Euglena as well as a list of the species in this genus.
